Orange blossom, white peach, antique rose, lychee and lavender aromas lead to succulent yet vibrant entry of freshly cut
ginger, ripe stonefruit and quince before revealing a soft silky mid palate and a long, moreish finish.

Vineyard
Stony soils with overlying sandy loam, deep river silt and free draining gravels (Waimea Plains)
20% Nomaya, Richmond Hills, 80% Gravity, Moutere Hills

Winemaking Notes
Two unique vineyard parcels gently destemmed and pressed to stainless steel tanks. The third parcel, grapes were destemmed
directly to tank and fermented on full solids (skins) with gently hand plunging. Fermented cool with selected aromatic yeast
strains to retain varietal intensity and character. Post ferment wines are lightly racked to retain silky lees and allow yeast
autolysis for five months prior to careful blending
